    Classified prices

    Not just a Rokslide phenomenon. I have seen multiple used guns at Basspro.com that are more expensive than new ones of the exact same model on other sites.

    Moving to Bristol TN/VA

    I lived in Jonesborough, TN for 5 years. I would always recommend TN due to no state income tax. It has been 12 years since I lived there so I am not sure about the current land costs, but at the time, it was relatively cheap compared to some other areas I have lived. I enjoyed my time in East TN.

    North Georgia Mountain Bear

    Congratulations on the hunt and way to persevere Although N GA doesn't have the elevation gains of the Rockies you can't really understand how difficult the terrain is in N GA until you have went through a mountain laurel thicket with a ruck on

    Green Egg Style

    i had a Char grill akorn for 6 years. No performance issues but the bottom vent was rusting out, the the humidity and moisture did not help in South Florida. I sold it when I moved otherwise I would have kept the grill.

    Your brain on microplastics?

    It not only affects your brain. It negatively affects your testosterone levels and reproductive health. Joe Rogan had a podcast with Dr. Shanna Swan covering the effects of microplastics on our health.

    Balancing sleep with time hunting

    My personal preference is to truck camp at the trailhead to maximize sleep and take an afternoon siesta, but I can rack out anywhere with no problem except hotels.

    Don't underestimate old guy strength

    I am 42, and I am definitely not as strong as I was in my late teens, 20s or early 30s. I work out consistently 3 to 5 days a week, but I go for more reps with a lower weight. It seems to help with all of the aches and pains. I can only imagine how my body will feel 20 to 30 years from now.

    Have any of you thought who gets your stuff. Or do they even want it

    I have a Browning Sweet 16 that went from my Great Uncle (whom I am named after) to my Father and now to me. I have it in my will that it will go to my son. My daughter and son can divy up the rest of the guns and gear however they see fit.

    Field Strip meals

    Others have said it but the biggest benefit to field stripping your meals for me is the space it frees up in your ruck. Even if you have the room, rucking is much easier if you have a compact ruck that is sitting high up on your back.

    Creepy experiences in the backcountry

    Had a covey of quail flush right underneath my feet as I was walking back to my campsite in the dark. It took a few minutes for my heart rate to get back to a normal rate.
